City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments #1) by Cassandra Clare

City of Bones (Mortal Instruments, #1) Welcome to a New York City you've never before experienced. Behind the glamour, you will find a world you thought only existed in fantasies and other tales.

Vampires, werewolves, and fairies are only a few of the Downworlders who inhabit the city. Shadowhunters are nephilim, children born of angel and human. The Shadowhunters protect the mundanes (regular humans) of city by killing demons and keeping the Downworlders under control.

Clary Fray is spending the evening at Club Pandemonium with her bff, Simon, when she witnesses three tattooed teens attack and kill another. When she goes to investigate, the body of the murdered teen disappears into thin air. It is then that Clary discovers the tattooed ones are Shadowhunters and she, a mundane, should not be able to see them.

What Clary discovers next will lead her to question everything she's ever known about her life and her world.
